I’m betting a 100 bucks there is an old drunk on a WI bar stool that may just get a start for the Pack at QB …any takers??

At least the Packers are playing musical QBs due to injury. The Vikings are doing it because theirs all suck. You guys will be bottom feeders for the foreseeable future.

Tue, 12 Nov 2013 00:54:57 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2223921#comment-2936252While Skelton was with the Bengals, he had the best stats in the preseason games over Dalton and Johnson, even while he was learning to play a West Coast offense for the first time. Gruden cut Skelton because he was still learning the WCO, he wanted Johnson around to play the wildcat, and because Johnson has been a pet project of his since Johnson was drafted by Tampa Bay.

Away for the horrible Cards offensive line, Skelton looked real good behind the Bengals second team offensive line.

Still haven’t heard the truth of the 49er signing fiasco where they waived Skelton (in order to sign newly cut BJ Daniels) after signing him one week earlier with Harbaugh gushing over Skelton’s experience and potential.

Is this team 3 or 4 this season?

MM would have to change his offense to use him and he wont do that. But I haven’t heard anything about him being a bad guy. I will say that Don Shula got into the playoffs with Tom Matte who was a running back and Tebow got the Broncos there so it can be done.

LOL – remember when “In Ted We Trust” and “Next Man Up” were used with pride? What happened to that?

—————————————————————————————————————————————————— pretty hard to ( next man up after your starting qb) then again if your a viking fan a practice squad qb would be an upgrade right? btw contra what happened to the vikings winning the superbowl this year? you were one of the people posting it on this site after the draft and the signing of greg jennings what happened?

David Carr is not a Giant. Lost his spot in the preseason to Curtis Painter. Know the facts before you start trashing people.

At least Rodgers has a ring to hold onto. Adrian has wasted his whole career. He missed out on his only chance when Brett threw the game away. Wait, why should they want Favre back again?

The crop of FA QBs isn’t anything to write home about. You can prefer one guy over another but end of day if a guy had a ton to offer he’d already have a job by now.

Rodgers went to Cal Berkely. that’s like an Ivy league school .
______________

When did they move California up to the NE corner of the United States?

Why wouldn’t GB check out David Carr??? Whatever 49th option they sign to backup Tolzien isn’t gonna make a difference. Soooooooo….why not sign the one who at least has intimate knowledge of your opponent??

You’re welcome Thompson.
_______

Because David Carr is still employed by the Giants? Maybe being an NFL GM is harder than you thought.

Skelton has a big arm . he can throw the bomb . worth keeping on the developmental squad and learning in McCarthy’s QB camps.
___________________

Are you serious?

Besides Rodgers – name me one QB that has been in McCarthy’s QB development squad in Green Bay that is even on an NFL roster today – besides Tolzien?

The Packers have a horrible track record with all the other QB’s that have been on the Packers during the MM & TT era.

Names like Brian Brohm, Ingle Martin, Graham Harrell, BJ Coleman, Craig Nall and Matt Flynn are what you have to choose from…
